What a great idea! Of course, right now at the moment there is probably less demand, the beauty of your service, i am guessing, is that it can be outdoors and somewhat weather resistant. I would encourage you to reach out to event managers and planners with the idea - i feel as though there is something like this with tents, but i don't think i've seen this exact type of full-service approach. Especially not with the added industrial 'cool' factor. You may run into event spaces that provide this kind of service, so getting to them with the idea to use your service to offer to their clients might be a B2B model worth exploring. -JL For straight-to-customer approach,

I think you are looking for a small button to go alongside Facebook and LinkedIn? Great idea! While this is not an official answer, I would think you could create a button that links to your clarity profile and add it to your site, ie, "Find me on Clarity," depending upon your technical expertise.

It is extremely easy, and it has three ways. Whenever you wish to answer a question on clarity follow these three tips: 1. Start by covering your related experience: Relate your real life experience with he question, for instance if you are answering a question on Sales & Marketing make sure you really have the experience of Sales and Marketing, do not beat around the bush. 2. Answer the question in detail, giving examples, tips, etc.: Avoid making cheap money. Make sure you are REALLY helping the concerned person, not for money but for sake of really helping. Check the internet for details, example, and tips, read books, blogs, and newspapers, try to relate them to the question at hand. 3. End by offering a call for follow up questions: Once this is done, go to your account, enter edit your profile section click on share your profile link below the answer.

Tip: For every 6 figures income elsewhere, Clarity generates a few dollars. So... Far better to do this... 1) Set your income/month target. 2) Set your hours/week worked target. 3) Timeline to reach #1 + #2. 4) Work out your offerings (price points of goods/services/information) you'll provide to implement #3. 5) Then locate people who've achieved your goals already. Hire them to assist you. Skip all the way to the bank. 6) Tip: You said "I can promote any business or product or service to millions of people world-wide." Then... best you do this... and you'll be rich... You'll always generate far more income marketing whatever you're selling directly to a large audience (B2C) rather than a smaller audience (B2B). Tip: And there's a trade off. When going B2C the only way to get rich + still have a life, is to design your business where... Marketing + Sales + Fulfillment + Support + Billing all runs on automatic. Implementing automatic style businesses ensures a near infinite ROI (return on investment), where expenses are near zero, so profit becomes astronomical.

Great question! Many of my startup clients are in the technology space, which is very strong at the moment. Those who are able to support business shifts for Covid are doing well.

The online food delivery industry is at its growth stage, especially after lockdown. There is a surge in demand due to the COVID-19 outbreak as the customers were unable to visit their favorite restaurants and opted for ordering food online. As a precaution, even the restaurants have reduced the sitting capacity in the restaurants, which is one big reason for the increase in online orders. Apps like Uber Eats, GrubHub, Deliveroo are high in demand with an increasing number of downloads each day. This is because consumer behavior has changed, people now feel it safe and more convenient to order food online during the pandemic to avoid crowded places. Even the restaurants that earlier did not have the online services available have started investing to digitize their food ordering and delivery system. However, the entrepreneurs demand platforms similar to top players like Uber Eats. Here is a blog that has explained in detail “How to build an app like Uber Eats”: https://www.fatbit.com/fab/how-to-build-an-app-like-ubereats/ To build an online food ordering and delivery platform you can either opt for a ready-made solution that is a cost-efficient investment or build the website/app from scratch.

Hi - i would first start with your goals. if this is to be a group for your team to interact and share, a system like Teams, Slack or Monday are good alternatives that have cloud interfaces and have a ton of functionality. For more open groups, Facebook groups are pretty robust. Could you tell me a little more about how you want to use the group and the overall goal as that may help define your solution better. -JL

Lead generation is very important - more importantly, being aware of what works best to keep a steady stream of leads coming in to the top of your sales funnel. There are a number of ways to ensure you have leads, but before you get there, it's important that you understand your customer. By creating a thorough persona for your customers, you will have a better idea of how to reach them and what to say to them. After this foundation is set, there are many different lead generation techniques you can employ. Usually this will involve a content strategy and lead nurture approach that will keep your company top of mind for the moment your lead is ready to convert to a sale. Additionally, by having a content plan, you can give your sales team the support they need when making those connections. I would be happy to talk with you to better understand your business and help you by laying out a lead generation and lead nurture plan. Hope this is helpful! Thanks -JL

Get Advice On Growing Your Real Estate Business

Hi there, this question is a loaded one... Not the typical investing type question found here on Clarity - but... Since I do invest heavily, I will try to give you my two cents on the subject. I'm not a licensed advisor and this is purely conversational and by means a professional recommendation. things to know: 1. penny stocks are typically not a good idea. 2. penny stocks can be stocks sold each to even $2-3 each... not necessarily pennies. 3. also if you want to make money, don't go for the get rich quick schemes, that never pans out.... 4. Good companies aren't valued by their ticker price but their value as a company and that is calculated using their market cap, their debt, & outstanding number of shares. Compared to what the EPS vs price is how you should help determine if a stock is worth buying for potential flipping. 5. that takes me to this; flipping game and holding is a completely different strategy. 6. when flipping, if a stock drops you may not want to buy more (depending on the historical legitimacy of the company) you may want to buy more at dropped prices to margin out the losses and be able to sell quicker than just letting the negative 'losses' rise up to where you bought them initially and then sell. Sometimes buying low when you're on negative is a good thing - but only with certain companies. 7. if you chose the right companies, #6, will always be a buy option if low.. because it means your good company is 'on sale' - only thing that is affected is how soon you'd be able to sell. 8. Stop asking for penny stock companies, because you will never get the best choice that way. also is not a good long term strategy to gamble your money based on what strangers tell you to buy and spend your own hard earned money on. If it goes sour, is that person going to pay you back? Not even professional financial advisors guarantee - so don't ask strangers for actual companies. Ask for specific knowledge instead. 9. Stick to companies for industries you actually, honestly understand. If you buy a lot of them, or see your GF buying a lot of that and don't see the demand waining down... 10. Consider this: Because your buying decision should always be based on value, not price. the ticker price is irrelevant. Theoretically speaking, is the same whether you have $1000 and buy a thousand $1 shares or buy 3 @ $330 each share. what is important is their stability and their potential profit margin based on value vs ticker price not how many shares you own. Historically speaking, the less the ticker price is the more dangerous it is. Don't look at penny stocks because you only have a bit of money, look at industries first, then companies, then value. Don't start your search based on ticker price first. That's a sure fire way to have some expensive lessons. I'm not a financial advisor, but have about 10 years investing, MBA and have a few groups where I contribute my stock info as well. If you ever need any marketing or real estate help don't hesitate to message me. Otherwise, I hope I was a bit helpful :)

Sometimes a country that is generally in your market region may be better set up to support startups. I know, for example, that Israel has a tremendous startup infrastructure and accelerators, as does Latin America and Asia. So I would begin by asking about your industry and your target region to better advise you. When you say 80% Lithuania, is that your planned sales base? Happy to chat in more detail. -JL

If I go by your definition, I am getting the notion that by particular worldwide company you are referring to an MNC. You must understand few important things when it comes to MNC: A MNC is a company that does business in more than one country. Transnational company produces, markets, invests and operates across the world. It is an integrated global enterprise that links global resources with global markets at profit. These companies have sales offices / manufacturing locations in many countries. a) MNCs consider opportunities globally b) MNCs invest their assets globally c) MNCs engage in international production d) Operations in number of countries e) Managerial decisions based on global perspective. f) MNCs produce the products in one or few countries and sell them in most countries. Transnational corporations produce the products in each country based on specific needs of customers of that country and market these. A transnational corporation mostly uses the inputs of the host country where it operates unlike an MNC. Companies become MNC because of several reasons for instance: i. Protection from uncertainties of business cycles, political policies of the domestic country ii. Tap global markets iii. Grow business iv. Increase profits v. Reduce costs vi. Overcome tariffs – In some countries, the companies need not pay tariffs, if they manufacture in that country and export those goods. So, such companies set up manufacturing facilities in those countries. E.g. NAFTA countries like USA, Canada, Mexico (NAFTA – North American Free Trade Agreement). vii. For technological advantage – instead of licensing, companies produce goods directly Advantages of MNC are as follows: i. Contributes to economic and industrial growth, ii. employment generation, iii. access to latest technology, iv. more business for domestic suppliers, v. more competition for domestic business, vi. reduction of imports, vii. favourable effect on balance of payments, viii. domestic consumers get plethora of products and services. ix. MNCs who export also earn foreign exchange. x. Good utilization of natural resources. Drawbacks of MNC are as follows: i. Unsuitability of technology to host country, ii. MNCs may not operate within the boundaries of national sovereignty, iii. they may indulge in monopolistic practices, iv. indiscriminate use of natural resources, v. focus only on consumer goods but not capital goods or development of infrastructure in host country, vi. pollution, dumping of material, vii. use of outdated technology to host country. Advantages of MNC to home country are as follows: i. Create demand for home country products, ii. create employment for home country people, iii. earn forex for home country, produce products required by home country consumers by producing in foreign countries with foreign resources, iv. save domestic country from environmental pollution, v. generates profits for home country by earning profits through business operations in host countries. Disadvantages of MNC to home country are as follows: i. Transfer capital to other countries, unfavourable balance of payments ii. Less employment opportunities in home iii. May neglect industrial development in home country as transnational companies follow secular approach Characteristics of an ideal MNC: a) Lose its parent identity and blend in where it operates b) Citizen of the world (absence of a polycentric approach) c) Takes up CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) efforts d) Meet customer requirements across the world e) Seek efficiencies f) Seek new technology and new knowledge g) Act within the framework of local law, rules and regulations The ideal MNC transcends the national boundaries and detaches itself from narrow national considerations. Therefore some people refer to MNCs as transnational corporations. A transnational corporation is globally integrated i.e. its considerations are for the entire worldwide operations as a whole; but at the same time, it respects the local (national) requirements. Multinational companies with total control from home country or companies with decentralized operations in different countries move towards becoming a transnational corporation. Global companies with a firm base in the home country and tight control over foreign operations also move towards becoming a transnational corporation. Developing countries should note that the size of a country’s domestic market may not be a limiting factor in the establishment of successful MNCs abroad. Small countries like Switzerland and Finland have spawned MNCs like Nestle, ABB and Wartsila. The growth of businesses need not follow a linear path. Companies can take the international route and scale up their business. Off shoring is shifting an activity abroad. R&D can be outsourced but there is a risk of losing protection offered by intellectual property rights. Back office processes, technical support functions like data entry, data processing, secretarial services, telemarketing, legal transcription and business process outsourcing are services that are generally subject to off shoring. Data processing, database services, software implementation, financial services, animation services and health services are also subject to off shoring. Medical transcription, diagnostics, testing and medical advisory services can be outsourced outside domestic country. Now once you have understood this, you will also understand the fact that most of the companies which operate worldwide do have a strong social networking base as well i.e. social media to make it’s presence felt in the business market. The reality of individuals getting intricately connected with each other through the social media (as seen above) cannot be ignored by any business, whether it is a large corporation or an SME. Customer has always been a king and businesses are constantly trying to reach out and seek attention of their consumers for new leads, feedback, research, and service. Ever since social media has become the new destination for millions of people, it is the perfect platform for businesses to carry out or support some of their business functions online. Today, more than 90 percent of the adult online population is using social media, which includes many of your customers who are networking with others. No business can ignore social media anymore. If you are, you are not only losing an opportunity to enhance your business, but your absence may also be causing damage to your brand and reputation. Social influence has always played a major role in the buying decisions of customers. But now more and more people are relying on the social media online to seek referrals and recommendations from others, asking / answering questions and sharing their experiences. It is not only the big multi-national or national brands, the phenomenon can be seen taking place at the local level; theatres, restaurants, etc, are all being discussed on the social media. Businesses usually refer to the social media as a consumer-generated media (CGM). Social media can be differentiated from industrial or traditional media like magazines, newspapers, television, and film, as they are relatively inexpensive, easily accessible and enable anyone (private individuals) to publish or access information. Benefits of social media to businesses are as follows: a) Accessibility: The social media is easily accessible and takes minimal or no costs to use. Social media is easy to use and does not require any special skills, knowledge to use. It is absolutely simple to connect with others and be a part of communities. Therefore, anyone with online access can use the Social Media to initiate or participate in the conversations. In a sense, everyone is now empowered to speak up. b) Speed: The content that you create on the social media is available to everyone in your network/forum/community as soon as you publish it. You can communicate with your audience without any external factor affecting the delivery of your message. The responses are also near instantaneous and thus you can have a dialogue, which is almost in real-time. c) Interactivity: Social media affords a two way or multiple communication channels. Users can interact with each other; ask questions, discuss products/services, share opinions and anything else they might be interested in doing. d) Longevity/volatility: Social media content remains accessible for a long time, maybe forever, because of the nature of the medium. In addition to this the content can be edited/updated anytime. So, if a user likes a particular product and says so in the social media, it is not a permanent positive vote for the product; the user can always go back and change his opinion anytime. e) Reach: The Internet offers an unlimited reach to all content available. Anyone can access it from anywhere and anyone can reach, potentially, everyone. Social media offers the same facility to all the users who can share anything with anyone they like. f) Online Branding: Every business wants to be known as a brand, which is, in effect, its “identity” that may be represented by a name, logo, colour schemes or the tag line. But, the term “branding” goes much beyond just these and is in fact a culmination of the individual “identity” of the business, how it differs from its competitors and why a buyer should come to it. g) Marketing: Social Media Marketing is the way businesses and non-profit organisations use the social media effectively to build relationships through trust, useful content, helpfulness, and authority. h) Building Relationships: For a business to be successful it needs satisfied customers, and for a customer to be satisfied they need good customer care and service. A satisfied customer is a loyal customer. So how can a business provide good customer service, care, or support? i) Word-of Mouth / Networking: Social Media is the new Word-of-Mouth. Since people are all inter-connected with each other, a small mention in any of your audience’s profile goes a long way in spreading the word about your business/product. Let your customers become your marketing agents. j) Online Reputation Management: “The practice of monitoring the Internet reputation of a person, brand or business, with the goal of suppressing negative mentions entirely or pushing them lower on search engine results pages to decrease their visibility is known as online reputation management (ORM).” k) Community Building: A company or business can use the social media to build a community around its products/business. Vibrant communities create loyalty and encourage discussions, which can contribute towards business development and improvement. l) Lending a Human Face to the Business: More and more customers are sick of the marketing jargon and are not comfortable dealing with faceless businesses. People like to deal with people and participation in social media helps to lend a face to your business. Thus, the answer to your question is that to find major customers of particular worldwide public company tap into the social media influence of that company. You will not only get customers there but also ex-employees who will help you know understand the company well. Besides if you do have any questions give me a call: https://clarity.fm/joy-brotonath

That's a great offer, and I'm sure there would be businesses who would like your help. Have you established yourself as a consultant? I mean the mechanical part of setting yourself up, ie, website, business license, linkedin profile, etc. Remember that just because you are offering your service at no cost, you still need to be able to tell the story of why someone would want to work with you and let you "inside." For example, are you just starting out? are you looking for references or testimonials? be sure to use your personal story in your message. LinkedIN would be a good place to start. But first, try to get super narrow in your targeting of the type of organization you want to work with. The narrower you can make your target, the easier it will be to reach them. Find the type of org you want to work with, then you can use sales navigator to reach out to those businesses. Hope this helps!

Cloud funding platforms are a good way of raising funds for various causes. However, a major concern on the part of the giver may be issues around transparency regarding what the money is being used for. To address this, there should be clear communication on the part of the receiver stating and possibly providing pictures showing what the funds have been used for. In addition, if an option is going to be provided for donations to be made online, ensure that the platform is secure.

It really depends under which legal jurisdiction you are. The tax laws are very different in each country. Very generally speaking, every income needs to be accounted for, but what you could do is transfer the money to your corporate account and register it as a founder's loan to the company (which may or may not be paid back to you in the future). You just need to take into account that you still may need to report the source of the income (even if you didn't have a company then) and pay taxes for it (if applicable in your case - again, it depends where you located, how you're registered with the tax authorities, and what the amount is). * Disclaimer: the above should not be seen as legal or tax advice as this is impossible to give without knowing all the details. You should always consult with an accountant or lawyer. I can try connect you with one if you let me know your location and budget. Good luck I've successfully helped over 350 entrepreneurs, startups and businesses, and I would be happy to help you. After scheduling a call, please send me some background information so that I can prepare in advance - thus giving you maximum value for your money.
